I was SO excited..... until mum opened the car door.....and the Grandpa look alike did not smell like MY Grandpa.... I was a little disappointed.... I'm sure you all remember how much I LOVE MY Grandpa right??

Well, mum said this was Grandpa's older brother, my Grand-Uncle. He was passing through Vancouver (from Taiwan) for a business trip, and this was his first time meeting ME.

He really liked me, and I let him pet me,

But I just kept thinking to myself, I want MY Grandpa.....

Thank you Grand-Uncle for the lovely pets, but you are not MY Grandpa........

So that means I can't truly enjoy the pets.....

Nor the nice neck rubs......

Because you're not MY Grandpa.......

(mum: Sunshade is aloof like that with people she doesn't know. She would prefer they didn't get buddy buddy with her. However, I had put both Sunshade and Jaffa in a sit stay to take the group picture earlier, so my good girl was still obeying my stay command.)Yea, where was STINKY? He was suppose to be "staying" too!

THIS is MY Grandpa!!!!!

He is the BESTEST!!!

And I love him THIS much!!! (mum: video taken back in October 2011 when my dad visited.)

About Me

Hi everybody, my name is Sunshade and I am a 13 year old SuperDALE. The reason I'm a SuperDALE is because I am extremely smart and am always there for my mum (ie, when she locked me and the car keys in the car, I unlocked the car door for her)!
Mum got me as her 16th B-Day present from grandpa and we've been inseparable ever since. I saw mum through high school graduation, moved from Victoria to the big city - Vancouver with mum, went to many of mum's lectures with her, and finally saw her through university graduation.
Words cannot describe the bond mum and I share. It is truly a once in a life time connection that we have with each other. Mum says I'm her "one in a million soulmate", I think so too!!!
Here are some basic information about ME:
***Breed: Airedale Terrier ***Registered name: Loc Aire's "Sunshade"
***Date of Birth: November 25th 1999 ***Birth place: Port Angeles, WA ***Current age: 10 years old ***Hometown: Victoria + Vancouver B.C. ***Weight: 63 lbs
